
Even a light object can cause damage to the ceramic cooktop in
certain circumstances. Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface.

Hot pans on the display can cause damage to the electronics
underneath. Do not place hot pans on the area around the display.

The cooktop frames or surrounding (in the case of beveled
cooktops) may become hot due to the following factors: operating
time, high output settings, large cookware, and number of burners in
operation.

Cookware of aluminum or with an aluminum base can cause
shiny metallic spots. These spots can be removed with ceramic
glass or stainless steel cleaner (see "Cleaning and Care").

If residue remains on the cooktop for any length of time, it can
cook into the cooktop and sometimes it is then not possible to
remove it. Remove spills and splatters promptly. Also make sure that
the bottom of any cookware is clean, dry, and free of grease before
placing it on the cooktop.

Because induction heating works so quickly, the temperature of
the cookware bottom can quickly reach the ignition point of oils and
fats. Never leave the cooktop unattended when it is on!

Do not heat oils and fats for longer than one minute, and never
use the booster.

For people who have a heart pacemaker: Please note that the
area immediately surrounding the cooktop is electromagnetically
charged. It is very unlikely to affect a pacemaker. However, if in any
doubt, consult the manufacturer of the pacemaker or your doctor.

Objects affected by electromagnetic fields, for instance credit
cards, CDs and calculators, should be kept away from the cooktop
when it is on.

Metal utensils stored in a drawer under the cooktop can become
hot if the appliance is used intensively for a long time. Do not store
any metal items or utensils in a drawer under the cooktop.
